This repo is a vulnerability database and package search for sources such as OSV, NVD, GitHub, and NPM. Vulnerability data are downloaded from the sources and stored in a custom file based storage with indexes to allow offline access and quick searches.

Installation

Usage

This package is ideal as a library for managing vulnerabilities. This is used by dep-scan, a free open-source dependency audit tool. However, there is a limited cli capability available with few features to test this tool directly.

  • NVD_START_YEAR - Default: 2016. Supports upto 2002
  • GITHUB_PAGE_COUNT - Default: 5. Supports upto 20

Periodic sync

To periodically sync the latest vulnerabilities and update the database cache.

vdb --sync
